I do so envy those people who have come up with music playlists for their gods. It always seemed like a really good idea, but try as I might I've just not been able to do it myself

Thanks for the links. We'll...well, we'll try. I see it bases recommendations based on what other people who like that band like. I've seen how that can turn out from sites like Netflix, where following enough links can get me some good shit, but most of their recommendations are very what the fuck (I see that you loved a Korean movie about revenge and the goriest horror movie ever filmed, so maybe you would like to try Batman: The Animated Adventures? - oh, that one is very serious, I couldn't make that up); or I can't refine my tastes more specifically, I like violent horror so I get a long list the popular shit teenagers are watching or the direct to video shit that isn't even awful on an entertaining let's rip this shit up with friends level. And I'm less picky about movies than I am about music.
Maybe if you listed some of your favorite bands, some of us could try recommending stuff like it. I have a pretty wide range of musical tastes and might come up with something you haven't heard of yet.
My spiritual playlists, btw, are probably at least 75% music that other people wouldn't consider automatically "spiritual" (especially the one for one of my spirits, that has stuff like Drowning Pool, Slipknot, and Rammstein). But I'm sort of the opposite of you, in that almost *all* music that I like ends up having some spiritual connection in my mind over time.
I have made play lists before for some things - music can get tied into my creative process and I used to have play lists for stories I was writing (or thinking about writing, and if we're counting thinking about writing I suppose I have one now :-)). That was one reason why I thought it might be easy, but maybe that's just different. Of course the kind of shit I write goes along well with the kind of shit I listen to, the connection is easy to make. Maybe I file Hermes in some different place where I can't connect him to it?
that has stuff like Drowning Pool, Slipknot, and RammsteinAh, now you never mention liking music like that (well except Rammstein, that I knew), or I might have asked. :-) Like I said in my other entry, if I don't think people will care or be interested I tend not to share, and there is a reason why of all things I take some enjoyment in, music is the thing I discuss the least (I had a tag here already so it must have come up at some point, but not often and probably not in much detail). Because it seems I

Well, I'll give it a shot. Honestly, I like more industrial than metal or hard rock, and am fairly stuck in 90's industrial to boot (NIN, Ministry, etc.), but here are a few random things

All the music that I like could be classified somewhere between hard rock and metal; I honestly can't remember all the hundreds of little distinctions in sub genres within. Since the 90s was when I was listening to music a lot more than I am now, a good deal of what I do like probably comes out of there
